Seeds - Primotalii

The Primotalii is an extreme Capsicum chinense superhot variety created in 2012 by UK breeder Chris Saunders of UK Chilli Seeds. Widely regarded by chilli enthusiasts as one of the hottest peppers in existence, it is believed to originate from a cross between the 7 Pot Primo and Yellow Fatalii, although its exact origin remains something of a mystery after first appearing as a rogue ultra-bumpy red pod within a batch of Fatalii plants.

Pods are heavily wrinkled with a distinctive “boiling” texture and are famous for their exceptionally long, thin, distorted tails. They ripen from green to vibrant red and commonly range between 1,600,000 and 2,200,000+ Scoville Heat Units, delivering an immediate violent burn that rapidly engulfs the mouth and throat.

Despite the savage heat, the Primotalii is highly prized for its outstanding flavour profile, combining bright citrus, sweet tropical fruit, and floral undertones inherited from its Fatalii lineage.

Due to its combination of brutal heat and exceptional flavour, the Primotalii is highly valued for premium hot sauces, powders, mash, flakes, and other ultra-hot chilli products.
